lol yes it did have a front lip that matched the back but about 3 days into ownership I got it caught on my friends driveway than proceeded to run over it:(...
Ive thought about getting another one but Ive kept the sleeper look going like the black intercooler not sure about the rims I want to get them powder coated just looking for a colour...

strut bar yo. makes the suspension more stiff while turning corners cuz it it minimises the swaying of your struts
